Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many product families does Tungaloy make?

A: Tungaloy makes 4 main product families: TungTurn (turning inserts), TungMill (milling inserts), TungThread (threading inserts), and TungCut (grooving/parting inserts), plus TopDrill (U-drill inserts). This master catalog covers 443 SKUs across turning, milling, threading, and round inserts (a turning sub-family). TungCut and TopDrill are available in specialized sub-collections on the Tungaloy brand page.

Q: What Tungaloy grade is the equivalent of Sandvik GC4325?

A: T6130 (CVD TiN+Al2O3) is Tungaloy's direct equivalent of Sandvik GC4325 and Mitsubishi US7020 for general steel turning. T6130 is Tungaloy's most popular grade. For stainless equivalents, use T9200 (PVD TiAlN) = Sandvik GC2040 = Mitsubishi VP15TF. For cermet high-finish, use NS9530 = Sandvik CG100.

Q: Are Tungaloy inserts interchangeable with other brands?

A: Yes. All Tungaloy inserts are manufactured to ISO 1832 / ANSI standard sizing. CNMG 120408 from Tungaloy fits the same tool holder pocket as Sandvik, Mitsubishi, Iscar, or KORLOY equivalents. You can switch brands without changing holders. Our engineers can send you a matched Tungaloy cross-reference for any competitor code within one business day.

Q: What's the difference between Tungaloy positive and negative turning inserts?

A: Positive inserts (CCMT / DCMT / VBMT / TCMT) have a 7° positive rake for low cutting force — best for thin-walled parts, small parts, finishing, and low-rigidity setups. Negative inserts (CNMG / WNMG / TNMG) have 0° rake for strong edge geometry — best for heavy roughing, high feed rates, and high-rigidity setups. Browse the positive turning sub-collection (195 SKUs) for the full 7° rake lineup.
